~Chapter 9~
~Juliletta's Pov~
Its been about 3 weeks since Spike and I began to go out. Nothing really changed between us. We still kept our relationship professional during work hours but we always hung out more. I even had dinner with his family more often. Only days ago Spike told me his dad passed away after our hot call when he was trapped in a building with a bomb inside it. I was so scared for him that day. For him, Raf, and Sam. They were all there too. Enough of that for right now. Right now I was home grabbing my work bag and purse when I heard my door bell ring. I walked up to the door.
Me: Who is it?
Greg: My name is Sargent Greg Parker I'm with the Police Stratigic Responce Unit. May I ask is Juliet Callaghan here?
I giggled and opened the door.
Me: Yes she is. Morning Greg.
Greg: Morning Juliet.
Me: Come on in.
And so he did so I shut the door.
Me: What do I owe the pleasure of your visit.
Greg: Coffee. Its the first Monday of the month so its my turn to give out the coffee. Double Capachino with Whipp Creame' and Skim Milk right?
Me: Yeah?
He gave me my coffee.
Me: Since when home delivering became part of the deal?
Greg: Since I have news to bring. Police Services just announced their Law Enforcement Professional of the Year.
I felt him give me an envelope.
Greg: Congratulations Julietta Callaghan.
I felt the envelope and the letter inside was in brail.
Greg: I personally made sure to make them print out another copy in brail just for you.
I smiled and hugged him.
Me: Thanks Greg.
Greg: Anytime kiddo. I called Spike and told him I would pick you up this morning.
Me: Thanks again.
Greg: Of course. You two are the only ones I know how to keep a relationship professional on the job. So we should have nothing to worry about. And I put the English version of the letter in your bag ok? The gala is in a month and spotlight is all on you.
Me: Ok. Lets go. Once I tell Jules she would want to take me dress shopping.
Greg: Oh boy. I know how much you hate shopping.
Me: So much.
He laughed as I grabbed my stuff and we left out the door to his car.
Once we got to the office I went to the washroom to change to go work out at the gym. I decided to go on the excercise bike and I heard "A Day in Our Lives" play on the tv.
Me: Ok who put on a chick flick on the tube?
Boss: Not me.
Jules: Not me either girl.
Spike: I did actually.
Me: Why?
Spike: Because its your favorite and this is the new episode you didn't want to miss remember?
Me: I remember. Just so you know you are paying for Pay-per-view.
All of us laughed. So all of us worked out. Today Eddie had the day off because he was taking Donna to her wedding today. He was giving her away. I thought it was sweet. Donna invited me too but I couldn't go because I didn't have the right dress for it and that my pollon allergies are acting up and it was taking place in a flowery field. So things were all well until we caught a hot call. I wasn't needed so I sat with Winnie today. Winnie is a great person to be with. She is like my girlfriend.
Me: Hey Win you ok?
Winnie: Yeah I'm ok. Too bad you didn't go to the wedding.
Me: Yeah but I gave Eddie my wedding present to give to the happy couple and she promised she would tape the honey moon and sent pictures. I like Hank. He is good for her. I've met the guy and he is a ok in my book.
Winnie: I'm glad.
You want to know why I know Donna so well? You see in my case I'm not always needed on Team 1 so I switch around between Teams 1-3 in SRU. I forgot to meantion that huh? Well sorry about that. And since I rotate around 3 teams I get a bigger salery for being on 3 teams intead of one. But my default team is always Team 1. Team 3 is my second and Team 2 is my third.
Boss: Careful team. We don't know the nature of this call yet.
Sam: Confirmed. White woman mid to late thirties gun shot to the head. DIA.
Raf: We got a runner. Hey Stop!
After a short chase and a car stopping the shooter we got him.
Jules: Boss I just got a call from Ed. There was a shooting.
Boss: Where Donna's wedding?
Jules: Yeah.
Boss: Alright team lets move.
I gasped.
Winnie: Don't worry. I'm sure Donna is just fine.
Boss: Hey Juliet you there?
Me: Right here boss what do you need?
Boss: I'm sending Sam and Raf over to SRU to pick you up. We need you with us to question the witnesses at the wedding.
Me: I'm on it. Give me five minutes.
Sam: We'll be there in five.
Me: On it.
I gave Winnie my headset and got my gear. Once that was done I went to the garage and I heard the SUV come up.
Raf: Hey little lady.
I laughed and got in the car. We then drove of to where Donna's wedding was held. When we got out Raf led me to Donna.
Me: My god Donna are you alright?
Donna: I'm fine.
Me: How's Hank?
Donna: His best man has been shot and besides that he's ok.
Me: I'm so sorry about this.
Donna: Hey its not your fault. On the bright side I'm a married woman.
Me: Congrats. Where's Hank so I can question him.
Donna: Follow me.
She took my hand and we weaved through the crowd and found him.
Me: Hello Hank. Nice to see you again.
Hank: Hey Juliet.
Me: Alright lets get this started and over with so you can ride with your friend alright?
Hank: Yeah.
So I asked him the basic questions and he answered them fine.
Hank: Is this normal for Donna for wat she does?
Me: No. Its not suppose to be normal. This was personal and we will get to the bottom of this ok?
Hank: Yeah.
Me: Good. Stay safe ok?
Hank: I will.
Me: You need anything or suspect something. Call me ok. You got my number?
Hank: Yep. Got it.
Me: Good.
Then I led him to the ambulance and he left with them. So they we stratigised and figured that it was Donna they wanted. While Eddie and Sam went to go catch the shooters involved in this. So Donna figured they wanted her old undercover team and herself dead. So we went to go get them while I stayed with Donna and Eddie. We visited a friend of her's that was one of the targets but didn't go so well. He escaped the police escort and Spike found photos of a guy that was the sibling of one of the shooters coming out of his apartment. This wasn't good. Donna was in denial but it was true. He gave up the names to the family friends of the Logan Family. The crime bosses of this operation. So then later on we gainned a new theory that the Logans weren't after the members. It was their spouces. Which means that the bullet that shot Hank's best man was made for him instead. So she called Hank but no answer. That is until my phone rang.
Phone: Call from Hank Gerald.
Donna: That's Hank.
I answered it.
Me: Hello? Hank?
Hank: Juliet. I need you.
Me: Why what's wrong?
Hank: Remember what you said about calling if things don't seem right?
Me: Yeah why?
Hank: I'm here with Donna's old partner Bill, and he seems out of it. He wasn't making any sence. He didn't want me to call Donna. So I told him I had to pee and I left him to call you insted.
Me: Ok. Stay right where you are. Where are you?
Hank: I'm at a warehouse somewhere west of town.
Spike: Got the location.
Me: Ok Hank stay there we will get there as soon as we can. So keep you head down and hide until we get-
Then all of a sudden I heard gun shots through his end as we got in the SUVs and drove on.
Me: Hank?
No answer.
Me: Hank can you hear me? Hank!
No answer so I hung up.
Me: Punch it Ed. Hank has been shot.
He hit the sirens and we drove at top speed. As soon as we got there I ran to find Hank. Greg led me to him and I used my abilities of sound waves to find a pulse and help him. I did find one and helped EMS patch him up. I heard the situation go down through the radio. Donna snapped and wanted to kill him but I talked her down.
Me: Donna its me. I'm with Hank and he is going to be alright. He was fighting. Fighting for you. If you kill Bill then it would all be for nothing. He would never see you again. He loves you more that anything and that's why he married you. Just put down the gun. It's over ok.
I heard her cry and her weapon dropped.
Boss: You did it. Good job.
Me: Thanks boss.
In the end everything turned out ok. I visited Hank and Donna at the hospital with Spike before we went home. I gave them both a hug and left with Spike. Insted of going home he took me to the park to have a picnic. We had an Italian meal. It was delicous. He made Ravoili. My favorite Italian dish. It was cook and made to perfection. After we at I sat in his arms and lap and we just talked.
Me: I can't beleive you actually wrote me a poem back in our academy days.
Spike: I did. But I was too much of a chicken to give it to you.
I giggled.
Spike: Its not funny. I slipped into your locker 5 times but you always missed it.
Me: I didn't know you knew brail.
Spike: Yeah. I did after we met I decided to get a tutor to teach it to me.
Me: Spike that's so sweet. Do you remember what it said?
Spike: It was so long ago I can't remember it at the moment.
Me: That's too bad.
I layed my head on his shoulder and fit so perfectly together. I felt him kiss my forehead.
Spike: You ok?
Me: I'm fine. I just feel better when you're around.
I felt his lips that were still on my forehead turn into a smile.
Spike: Well you should feel wonderful because I'm not going anywhere.
I giggled as he kissed my cheek. Then my lips. Aftwerwords we just sat there just enjoying each other's company.
